Sellers of 'legal highs' could face up to seven years in prison under tough new penalties. Ministers are to publish draft laws they say are a landmark in prohibiting the substances' production, distribution, sale and supply. Police will also be given the powers to shut down websites which sell the drugs. Legal highs, officially called new psychoactive substances, have been linked to a number of deaths.

The Victoria Derbyshire programme spoke to 14-year-old Owain, who took a legal high and ended up in hospital and his mum Jennie. Other guests included Peter Stanley who owns the Gypsy Kings Caf茅, in Portsmouth, which sells legal highs, Jeremy Sare from the Angelus Foundation, a charity set up to educate people about the risks of legal highs and Niamh Eastwood, who is the executive director of Release, a charity which campaigns for reform of the drug laws.
